Subject to the Reporting Person continuing to serve as a member of the board of the Issuer, an additional 16.67% of the grant will vest on each of January 27, 2017, July 27, 2017, January 27, 2018 and August 21, 2018.
- F4Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each restricted stock unit with respect to common stock of Aegerion ("Aegerion RSU") that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the merger was exchanged for a restricted stock unit with respect to a number of common shares of the Issuer ("Issuer RSU") equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the total number of shares of common stock of Aegerion subject to the Aegerion RSU immediately prior to the effective time of the merger by (ii) the exchange ratio of 1.0256.
